Are you with Tom Brady or with Gisele Bundchen?

What a jerk, he ruined his own life.

She said retire or divorce and he chose to play.

What more is to he said?

Nobody knows what happens behind closed doors. But if she said retire or divorce, and he retired but then changed his mind then that’s another layer to the story.

They have discussed this multiple times in interviews.

They promised to retire together.

He reneged on the deal, she said clearly football is 1st and we (his family is 2nd).

They discussed it often, it’s not “behind closed doors” information.

Lots of this is in “Tom vs Time”

She catered to his crazy for years, his diet, his routine, the house had to be a specific temperature at all times. It’s all public information.

"I haven't had a Christmas in 23 years and I haven't had a Thanksgiving in 23 years, I haven't celebrated birthdays with people that I care about that are born from August to late January. And I'm not able to be at funerals and I'm not able to be at weddings," Brady said. "I think there comes a point in your life where you say: 'You know what? I've had my fill and it's enough and time to go on, to move into other parts of life.'"

Sigh.

When you love someone, you don’t divorce because they won’t retire.

I bet he cheated. Or he’s totally checked out and she’s over it.

You divorce when you are furious and can’t stand each other.

For years and years now Brady’s father has publicly said he would have trouble leaving the game and it would cause him issues with other aspects of his life. Turns out father knows best. It’s really not a secret why its happening. Brady just doesn’t want any part of life without playing football. He doesn’t even want to coach it, he wants to play. Usually as the years go on people grow and change, and they shift their priorities. He just hasn’t. It must have been disconcerting for her to come to this realization that’s it might never happen. Or when it becomes inevitable that he has to leave because he’s using a walker or whatever, she might wonder just what sort of depression he’ll sink into with the loss of the only identity he apparently truly cares about.

I agree with the PP that said what a fool.

It should be noted that his first son was born in August and his other two kids are December birthdays.

Dp and completely disagree. He checks out of the family from August to January. She agreed to it and they agreed to an end date. He reneged. She said it’s us or the game. He chose the game.

I’d walk too. This is common when you marry a workaholic. It’s easier to just leave and make your own happiness.

+1. Different profession totally but I work for one of the intel agencies. We had a guy that had a particular focus and he had great success - was at the top of his game for 15 years. But it involved almost 24/7 commitment, could be called in at any time, no matter what, long hours, travel to dangerous places on no notice, etc. He spoke to the workforce during his retirement ceremony and made it clear that he had made a promise to his family and was going to keep it.

I am with whichever camp takes me. It seems T&G don’t care for my opinion!

Oh please. You have no way of knowing her net worth. It’s all pr planted nonsense. At least his salary is public record as are his endorsement deals with any publicly traded companies.

I think everyone underestimates the impact of his plan to go to the Miami Dolphins being imploded by a lawsuit filed by the former Dolphins coach against team owner Stephen Ross. It seems clear Gisele hated Tampa Bay, hated the family being apart, wanted all of them to be in Miami. Tom had a plan to get to the Miami team but that lawsuit imploded those plans.

Exactly! You'd think he'd have enough sense to work with someone like a life coach to help him transition to something he could be passionate about other than playing football. It really speaks to how stunted he is an an individual that he can't let go of being a player.

Yes when somebody makes a promise and then does not keep it, you might divorce.

It’s hard for many to understand holding their spouse to their promises, since most don’t,

He has reneged on his promise more than once, he does not care about her needs or to have a relationship with his children.

Again , it’s hard to understand since so many men work 80 he weeks and have no relationship with their kids and many women are okay with that,
